DO WHAT YOU LOVE AND SUCCESS WOULD FOLLOW
So im looking at ways to packaging my little USB man for my project. Since coming up with my idea i know I wanted something that didnt allow you to see what was inside the box. I’ve looked at a few examples & i like the idea of pulling off a lid to reveal something, think I need to keep looking until I find the perfect one hmmmm xx
I love Absolut Vodka as a brand they push themselves to create outstanding bottle designs. This time they have decided to let the computers come up with the designs, no 2 bottles will ever be the same. Love it!
Video that has helped with the good old dissertation. Susan cut all electronic devices from her family for 6 months with some interesting outcomes

AS you all know I love book design & came across these. Wish I was able to carve these detailed would have so many ideas.
So christmas is round the corner & I was looking online to see what presents I could get for the younger cousins. I found the movie ‘Up’ on dvd, which my little cousin thinks is my Grandad which is why he isn’t around, & remembered there is a book that is made in the film called ‘Our Adventure Book’. I had alook online & found this. What better present than to make a handmade book linked to the film ‘Up”. Im gonna stick photo’s in the first half from when they were born to now then let them fill the rest of the book. Im so excited to start the project & have two to make, cant wait to see their faces….
Loving the poster would be great if you could get it in different colours
So for our first unit we have been asked to create a final outcome that was linked to either careers or housing. I decided to research in careers & what help there is for students after graduating. I found that there was a lot of information of what should be included into a CV but no examples nor is it directed to pacifically to certain subjects.
Because of this I decided to create a pack that would be given to students of all university levels showing what should be in a CV & how to personalise it to the student. Due to different subjects needing different elements I have decided to direct this pack solely to design students. Here is a few starting elements including the front design for the folder, the main logo that will be used on the pack & the of the slip that will keep the pack closed. The next thing to do is gather all information & see if separate sheets or a short booklet would be the best way to present what i have found. Cant wait until its all finished….
Folder design – Gate fold with either booklet or separate sheets inside showing information
Final Outcome Logo
Starting Design for the slip cover
So I been looking at creative CVs & came across this one. This has been designed by a design agency called “Effektive”. I love the use of typographic layout as well the use of black & white photography with bold colour added to make certain things stand out. The pack is A1 double sided, with the inside dedicated to work that has been produced by the agency. Dont think I’l be able to find a CV that beats this…
